What Foods do you LOVE!!!

[norgeway]

Since I had a foods I hate thread, I thought this would be interesting,I have to have sweet tea, I very rarely drink anything else, Barbecue would have to be my favorite food of all, and for the non Southerners here, BBQ is a NOUN not a verb, It means pork , either shoulder, ham or the whole hog, cooked over hardwood coals for 8 to 12 hours, chopped and served with a spicy vinegar sauce, side dishes are usually some form of slaw,around her red slaw, French fries and hush puppies, my very most favorite meal, I also love almost anything Italian, French or Greek, and of course anything with coconut or pineapple, the 2 things Donald wont touch..LOL, basically anything full of fat and cholesterol I love, I can eat such as grilled chicken breasts etc, but I have to be talked into it.LOL

A nice piece of beef filet that's seasoned with just some S & P then allowed to sit out til it comes to room temp. Then pan sear it in a touch of butter and olive oil to a perfect medium rare where the knife just about falls thru it like butter and when you bite into it, it just about melts in your mouth from being so nice tender and juicy. Perhaps a nicely baked potato and some fresh roasted asparagus with a touch of garlic and freshly shaved parm over it.

 

[petek]

Mine's easy! Cucumbers, sour cream, (not together), baked potato's, blue cheese and a good roast beef. After that, there's angel food cake, pound cake and rocky road ice cream. I forgot corn on the cob!

Blueberries. Fresh blueberries.

I like them in salads, smoothies, pies, coffee cakes, jam, pancakes, syrup, malts, ice cream, barbecue sauce, scones, and at least twenty other things. Love to eat them as a snack, too.[this post was last edited: 7/15/2015-05:19]

That's funny to see shrimp Louis salad, love that! And yea, cholesterol is where the flavors at!

 

[midcentnurse]

Another fave is good cantaloupe with cottage cheese. Or even tony chacheres sprinkled on top. A perfect steak fry cannot be beat either.. Or sliced bannana with homemade poppy seed dressing.

Stouffer's frozen lasagna. With extra cheese. Yeh I can make it from scratch but why bother for one serving?

 

[countryguy]

Pasta with a tomato sauce, lasagne, chicken, French Onion soup, Caesar salad (no anchovoies though)

 

[frigilux]

Pasta is a big favorite with me, too. My very favorite meal is a simple one: Spaghetti and meatballs topped with a good parmigiano reggiano and a slice or two of garlic toast. Were it to be my last meal, I'd add a glass of chianti.

Rick--Stouffer's makes a pretty decent lasagna. My mom would haunt me if I didn't make my own, but I've had it a number of times at catered events.

 

[lovethesuds]

Crab legs with lots of melted BUTTER! Homegrown tomatoes and watermelon. Fried chicken with mashed potatoes lots of milk gravy and corn with fresh onions. Yummy!

 

[countryford]

Homemade Mashed Potatoes. No gravy, just butter.

 

[chachp]

Ditto on the Spaghetti and Meatballs.

<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">I'm Italian what can I say?  I have to watch my gluten intake so I have been making my pasta and pizza dough with Spelt Flour which doesn't seem to bother me.  I also love Pizza.  I can tear up a sheet pan of pizza like nobody's business.  I black out and when I come to I have sauce all over my hands and face, the pan is empty and I have no recollection of what happened.  </span>

 

<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">Anyone tried Spelt Flour products?</span>

They are super easy and you can make only what you need.  You can also vary the sauce and filling you use too.  I love doing a mushroom tomato sauce, but you could easily do a light mushroom cream sauce.  I want to try adding cooked crumbled italian sausage in the filling next.  Recipe calls for low fat cottage cheese but i have done it with either Part Skim or Full Fat Ricotta.  I also up the spinach to cheese ratio to make them lighter and more healthy. 

 

And taste way better than anything out of a box.

Short anecdote:

I'd been making snacks and candy (taffy) since I was 10. But my first 'meals' were in college; spaghetti and fried chicken. I don't do FC much anymore, colossal mess.

Spaghetti sauce OTOH, continues to evolve 50 years later. Make 10 servings at a time and freeze them in Ragu jars, though I haven't bought Ragu since the 90s. I don't think they even make that size any more.

Pound of hamburger and sausage, LOTS of mushrooms and black olives, extra tomato sauce to float all the chunks. But I've never made it from absolute scratch.

 

[turquoisedude]

I love all food, what can I say??  LOL 

 

But if I had to pick, pasta and meat sauce is the top of the list, followed by roast pork, chicken Cacciatore, pan-seared salmon, real Cesar salad (the one made with a coddled egg and anchovies), shrimp mousse, chocolate cake, blueberry pie and waffles.    All home-made, preferably with turquoise appliances....
